Wizard of Oz Father's Day Card

My daughter is a huge Wizard of Oz fan, and my hubby is an avid ball player so I combined them to make this super cute card for her to give him -- the inspiration came from a card I saw while at the Post Office last week - I changed the look and words to make it more personal for us!

Sympathy Card

Was in the craft room cleaning up the other day --- actually I was forced to clean up because I dropped one of my Heartfelt dies and tore the room apart looking for it - of course, it was not found :o(  Hoping it will turn up or I will need to repurchase the entire set!

Anyway, I made a vow to start using up all the scraps that are lying around, and I made this Sympathy card with matching envelope - I love the way the flowers came out, and I added drops of Glossy Accent so it looks like there are raindrops on the petals!!!

30 Day Color Challenge - Day 30

Finishing up the 30 day challenge, although it took me a lot longer than 30 days!  Below is a card I made colored with Spectrum Aqua markers and using one of Art Impressions new "window" stamps. The ink ran a little under the dock, but it doesn't look too bad.

The outside of the card is not "blinged-up" like most of the cards I make, but I really wanted the focal point to be the window.

I'm trying to finish up some crochet projects I've had lying around half finished for a while, then I'm going to try working on some mini-albums I've been wanting to start and may try my hand at some more altered art projects -- look for postings as soon as I get something new accomplished.

30 Day Color Challenge - Day 29

Another water color picture done with Spectrum Noir Aqua markers.  This time, I used the Spectrum pencils to add dimension to the picture.

Wizard of Oz Music Box

My first attempt at an Altered Art project --  I made a music box for my daughter that plays "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" --  Not bad for a first attempt!  The music box is under the "Ruby Slipper" platform --
